CRAIG Sutherland, who played with St Duthus during their historic revival season, won't be returning to the Saints for their 2017-18 campaign - as he is set to take up a new role with Police Scotland based in Aberdeen.

Signing late in the season, Craig played four times for the Saints, including as a substitute in the Jock Mackay Cup Final this past April, collecting a runners-up 'medal' on the day.

Everyone at St Duthus FC would like to wish Craig all the very best in his move.

The club also wishes to thank John Mackay, who is also leaving the club, for his efforts during the 2016-17 season.
